An analysis of genetic diversity actions, indicators and targets in 114 National Reports to the Convention on Biological Diversity

摘要: Abstract Genetic diversity is critically important for all species-domesticated and wild- to adapt environmental change, ecosystem resilience extreme events. International agreements such as the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) have committed conserve sustainably equitably use levels of biodiversity-genes, species ecosystems-globally. However, assessment monitoring genetic are often overlooked, there large knowledge policy gaps regarding conservation. In this study, we present first quantitative analysis assessments conducted by Parties CBD. We a detailed, systematic 114 CBD 5th (submitted 2014) 6th 2018) National Reports quantitatively assess actions, progress targets, values indicators related diversity. First, found that importance recognised most CBD, recognition increased over time. targets mainly addressed within cultivated plants, farm animals, crop wild relatives, with little focus other species. Also, actions conserving primarily concerned ex-situ facilities policy, rather than intervention maintaining in situ. The commonly used status were number resources conservation facilities, threatened breeds, Red List Index, which not well correlated erosion -- highlighting change poorly monitored current indicators. Lastly, analyses data observations, indigenous diversity, strategies being developed implemented highly under-reported. make several recommendations post-2020 Biodiversity Framework improve awareness, assessment, monitoring, facilitate consistent complete reporting future Reports.
